[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the same, but I think it’s because I’m old. It’s pretty common nowadays. Distasteful to me personally, but common. [/quote] I have the same reaction, even though I know it's widely accepted these days. I think that what bothers me is that I'm being asked to fund the couple's luxury vacation vs. getting suggestions for items to purchase to help them set up their new home. (That's ultimately what wedding gifts were/are about, traditionally.) I'm happy to contribute to your new life together but your vacation, not so much. I think that's why I have a visceral negative reaction to this. [/quote]
